SigmundPro can predict the quality of a Pro/Engineer assembly based upon predetermined tolerance values or determine the component tolerances required to meet a given assembly build objective. SigmundPro even includes a powerful utility, which automatically optimizes all tolerances in a given model. SigmundPro's powerful utilities and easy to use menu-driven modeling capabilities greatly reduce modeling time and effort, and its succinct reporting module provides all relevant information in four easy-to-interpret reports. SigmundPro optimizes design and assembly process, add precision where needed and eliminates overly costly.

SIGMUND PRO

SigmundPro, a powerful tolerance analysis software for ProEngineer developed by Varatech, enables designers, engineers to evaluate, optimize and validate assembly build quality, relative to piece part tolerance and assembly process variation. Fully integrated within Pro/Engineer and Certified Gold Partner, this value-added tool can be used early in the development phase before design solidification and hard tooling procurement. SigmundPro prevents costly tweaking delays at ramp-up as well as long-term variation problems. SigmundPro is integrated with Pro|Engineer Wildfire 5.0|Creo 1.0.

SIGMUND ABA for PRO-E

Sigmund ABA for Pro|Engineer is an assembly build analysis tool for parts and assemblies defined in Pro|ENGINEER, that allows engineers to evaluate the 3-D effects of component tolerances on the quality of manufactured products. Sigmund provides engineers with an easy to use Pro|ENGINEER-Sigmund interface to evaluate the capability of their Pro|ENGINEER designs, ensuring that assemblies go together 100 percent of the time, while meeting all the assembly performance criteria. Sigmund ABA is integrated with Pro|ENGINEER WildFire 5.0 | Creo 1.0

Benefits:

Sigmund ABA for Pro-E can be used to resolve complex assembly problems for rigid bodies, evaluate design improvements, identify important design characteristics, and determine optimal tolerances for parts and assemblies created in Pro-E. Using Sigmund ABA for Pro-E from design concept through production will improve quality, reduce costs, and cut development life cycle times.

Development of a Sigmund assembly build analysis model follows an intuitive, step-by-step methodology that includes Component Geometry Creation, GD&T or Tolerance Emulation & Optimization.

 

SIGMUND ABA KINEMATICS

Sigmund ABA Kinematics is the World's only assembly build analysis tool that allows engineers to evaluate the 3-D variational effects of kinematic mechanisms and component tolerances on the quality of manufactured products throughout the range of motion. Sigmund ABA Kinematics provides engineers with an easy to use interface to evaluate the capability of their kinematic mechanisms and the component/assembly design, ensuring that assemblies go together 100% of the time, while meeting all the assembly performance criteria.Sigmund ABA Kinematics is available as standalone, as well as integrated with Solidworks 2011 and later versions, SolidEdge ST3 and higher versions, ProEngineer Wildfire 5.0|Creo 1.0 and later versions.

KEY FEATURES:

Consider piece part/assembly variation and kinematic motion in the same environment.

Allows defining relative motion between multiple parts/components by using different kinematic joints, such as - primitive, revolved, cylindrical, universal, planar, ball, and bearing joints.

Allows assigning different driver motion in a mechanism.

Allows considering variation analysis in both open and closed loop mechanisms with zero to multiple degrees of freedom.

Can animate kinematic motion and trace the range of motion for a specific feature at both nominal and deviated conditions.

Can evaluate thousands of outputs throughout the range of motion in mechanisms.

    BENEFITS:

    Sigmund ABA Kinematics can be used to resolve complex assembly problems for kinematic mechanisms, evaluate design improvements, identify important design characteristics, and determine optimal tolerances for parts and assemblies with kinematic joints.

    Avoid creating multiple models by considering variation and kinematic motion at the same time.

     Allows accurate assembly of closed-loop kinematics mechanisms.

    Can identify non-build conditions because of actual and accurate constraints applied at specific joints.

    Can evaluate the effects of variation throughout the range of motion in mechanisms.

    Can compare them with the nominal range of motion relative to what you might see in an ADAMS model.

    Can generate automated reports showing multiple indices of information throughout the range of motion.
